one of the only things i remember thinking clearly when i was really a mess was "it's like a cancer. like an alien in me, eating my soul."
My personality when i'm in a really bad patch consists of next-to-nothing. My personality when I'm taking my meds properly and doing all the things I'm supposed to do (and going through a good patch) is as close-to-normal as I get.
Maybe the people you know shouldn't be on the meds they're on. Or maybe they didn't have any personalities to begin with.

whatever. my opinion is based upon anecdotal evidence, not imperical data. i myself have no reason to take antidepressants; in the rare event that i would be depressed i certainly know how to pull myself out of it (i'm not insinuating that you don't; i know that some people can't.) i see medication as sort of a last resort.
